Thr Video Recorder i have is quiet Old and the Producer could Not help me. So i w as very glad to find an offer for the owners Manual for a very fair Price.a I obtained the original Manual very quick and I am happy to have it now.
The PDF copy was immediately available on download after the payment. However, I noticed that the document was in German, and Ihad to contact a German translator to get it translated it to English. The quality of document is legible can be used for my purpose.
The manual was complete and of great quality. Originally a tri-lingual file, I first received only one language. After a note to owners-manuals.com, I quickly received the remaining languages... Great service, definitely worth it.
Thank you for providing this manual and at low cost.
The Philips scope is of excellent quality, longevity and build and had a couple of faults
when it was passed to me. Having the CCT diagrams is a blessing.
I have fixed the problems and also modded the scope to my requirements.
I have built a 24v Li-Ion pack for portable use from old but good laptop batts.
it is working beautifully and I am well pleased. Keep up the good work Guys.

features wide screen
panoramic format
The panoramic mode emulates that of a wide screen broadcast for 4:3 transmissions. This is achieved by maintaining the proportions of the centre of the screen while shrinking the images on the top and bottom of the screen. Note: This mode is generally recommended if AUTO is not selected
C16:9L format
The 16:9 ratio is the format that is usually transmitted by the broadcasting stations. The C16:9L format is used to expand a 16:9 �letter box� broadcast so that it uses the full screen to display the picture so that the image does not appear �crushed�.

C14:9L format
The 14:9 ratio is the format that is sometimes transmitted by the broadcasting stations. The C14:9L format is used to expand a 14:9 broadcast so that it produces an image of true proportions, but because of the original ratio the screen will have thin black bars to the right and to the left of the picture.

C14:9LS format
Some broadcasters transmit in a 14:9 format, which appears with black bands down each side of your picture. C14:9LS enlarges the picture (which can cut off the top) so these black bars are no longer visible.

after
4:3 format
The conventional picture format for most broadcasts is the 4:3 ratio signal which gives black bars to the sides of the screen and this is consistent with screen compression (see right).
